Above
is general picture of what a REAR CENTER PANEL looks
like...

part

REAR
CENTER PANEL #DN79-6 65-67 1/2*

*This
is actually a 65-67 as it is not drilled for the separate
"1600" and "2000" emblems that the 67 1/2s have. You'll need
to drill those holes if you are going to reinstall a "1600"
or "2000" emblem. The rear fenders overlap the rear center
panel on the ends.

When
Nissan stored these they were just stacked and jammed in a
wooden crate. The latch bracket on the reverse side pushed
on the panel below it making the impression in the lower
part of the area behind the license plate. Almost all of the
panels have this to some degree. Although they are all about
the same we have decided to photo each one and list each one
individually.

Using
on a 68-70 or 63-64. Rear Center Panelsvary by
the angle of the license plate area. Later (68-70) cars had
this area modified so license plate was mounted more
vertically. The 69 and 70 panels have the two license light
holes in them. The panel for the 63-64 has no provision to
mount a trunk lock since those cars had the lock in the
trunk handle. In some cases, on 65-67 vs 67 1/2's the emblem
holes may be different. Otherwise, any panel can be FORCED
to work. It is actually quite common to see this and other
"mistakes" on cars, up to and including mismatched rear
flares as in the old days when a car was hit, a body shop
would just call up a wrecking yard and get a fender, or the
Datsun dealer would order the wrong one. (The Nissan parts
book is somewhat of a disaster sometimes as to what's what)
Apparently no one noticed that the one they were getting was
different.
